el Primo

This cute little guy came and visited us Friday night for a few hours. We will call him cousin W*. He and Houdini think they want to be friends, but haven't exactly figured out how to be friends. The problem mainly lies in the fact that they are both boys, and close in age. Thus, they always want the same exact toy at the same exact moment.

When W* was first dropped off, he started crying. Houdini immediately ran and got his "Teddy" to give to W*. This is a very significant event, because Houdini loves Teddy like no other. He loves Teddy so much that Teddy generally looks like a poor homeless bear. Stinky, matted, smelly, etc. I was impressed that Houdini felt empathy for poor crying W*, and tried to comfort him in the best way he knew how. Although W* did not appreciate the effort. He promptly dropped Teddy and wandered off, probably looking for "Buzz" or "Woody".

At the end of our visit with W*, he got to watch a few minutes of "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" before he went to bed. I was amazed at how still he sat, watching intently. This is a boy that does not sit. He is on the move like no other, he's like a planet in hyper-drive, constantly spinning. But, something in the movie captured his attention, at least for the ten minutes he watched. Either that or his hyper-drive ran out.

I can't wait until these two grow up a bit and become best buddies. Thanks for always being willing to watch little Bruzer. He enjoys his cousins so much!

Word on the street is he also enjoys the fine taste of Stick's Salmon.
